Re: ADRIAN, Luzerne Co., Penna. 1830-1930

That's the family!My g-grandparents lived in Hughestown and I remember going to visit them.We knew there were 3 brothers that had come from Germany, but only heard stories about Henry and Frederick - no one knew what happened to the third brother and didn't know his name.The name Schmaltz seals it, I have a picture of her...little tiny lady that had about 15 kids, with 2 sets of twins thrown somewhere in there.Funny that my Frederick's uncle died in a mining accident, Fred worked in the mines from the time he was a small child and suffered some sort of electrical shock as a young adult that almost killed him and left him totally bald!Little short man with a cane, that could throw a baseball a mile and scared the living daylights out of us kids!I'd love to have as much information as you can give me, and of course I'll share whatever I have.Thanks!
